Greetings.
I've gathered 3200 scraps for the first time, and have a difficult choice before me - which item to purchase from relickers.
Seeking advices from experienced londoners - are there any material / story / informational / roleplay considerations to take into account?
Please bear in mind, that I already have maximum apartments.
Thank you in advance,
Det.

Get Veils Velvet, for sure. Rag Trade items are the coolest.
Each to their own, but I never followed the keep Scrap in reserve just in case approach. The items are way too cool for that, and it doesn't take THAT long to get Scrap. I collected them in the following order: Veils Velvet, Breath of the Void, Rumourmaster's Network, Reported Location of a One-Time Prince of Hell, second piece of Veils Velvet.
Now on 850-ish Scrap working towards piece of Veils Velvet #3...

I am of the personal opinion that a Breath of the Void is the coolest of the Highest-Tier options, if not necessarily the 'best', so I'd recommend that. However other individuals who are, it seems, far more responsible than I, have given excellent suggestions as well.

Personally I would just keep gathering scraps, until there is something which uses one of the top tier items. As you know it takes a long time to gather scraps and I didn't get those top tier items until I could get all four.

Sorry RL means I am not a very active player at the moment. No social actions unless you are prepared to wait and definitely no sparring or other mult-action things.
No Calling Cards or boxed cats please. Will take dupes on the affluent photographers. Other social invitations welcome. Parabolan Kittens usually available, send me an in-game social action saying you want one and I will get one to you as soon as possible.

I've been keeping 3200 scraps in reserve in case there's ever a use for the top-tier scrap items and then buying one that I like as I get to 6400 scraps (also bought one of each of the non-Coruscating Soul 680 scrap items). This seems like a safe way to address any surprise scrap-item uses.
I should have my second 3200-scrap item in about a month...

Though a wise suggestion, Lady Ciel and Toran, and I myself will take it into consideration - I pity the poor soul who achieved this amount of scraps after a looong grind and now being told to double it before buying anything.

Congratulations! If you're going for a grand society wedding, I suppose the Veils Velvet might make sense? Other than that, I think only the Location of a Prince of Hell has a use (but it's Ambition related and obtainable via options in that Ambition).
Now to continue the grind for the remaining 3 items

You can also use it to upgrade your Brass Embassy housing, if you don't want to do the cheaper, soulless Christmas option.
